Decent Special Teams player and back up. The same for Gorilla Arms.

I just cannot see Daboll surviving a true rebuild year that it looks like they are headed toward.  And don't get me wrong,  I think a true rebuild is needed.

Just seems like he maybe a sacrifice for Schoen at this point. 

The one thing I dont want to see is a QB drafted this year and regime change next year.  And I will be happy if they get Maye or Daniel's somehow.

If they draft a QB, you don't think Daboll has at least until after 2025? If they don't draft a QB, then I can see Daboll out after this year.

The philosophy of waiting until the end of the season to sit down and evaluate, eliminates snap decisions, and shoot from the hips moves.

The downside is that they lost out on any trade opportunities for Barkley and McKinney. Probably could have gotten a second and a third at least for each. Leo was on the back nine so that move was a good one. They can even sign him back if they wanted as a stop gap at a good price.

Quote from: uconnjack8 on March 11, 2024, 04:54:27 PMIf the team flops again this year, will Daboll be around for 2025?  Or is his departure part of the rebuild?

Interesting thought. It appears he's along for the ride unless he implodes.

Quote from: Giant Obsession on March 11, 2024, 04:28:32 PMAMEN Ed.  From your lips......

They let two of the best players on the team walk for comp picks. Signing frugal FA's so far. It's going to be an interesting Draft. I wouldn't be surprised if they go to the trenches heavily.

Does anyone think otherwise? Build through the Draft. They may actually sign a decent backup QB and skip drafting one. 

Looks like a couple of third round comp picks for 2025.

Looks like you have a fan club.

Quote from: T200 on March 11, 2024, 03:38:17 PMMy only questions are how does he handle stunts and inside twists and can he pull in the run game?

he's somewhat clumsy as the rumor goes.

As Rich mentioned although not in this context, just think if Schoen had paid the man three million more in Guaranteed money, he would still be here the next two seasons and Jones would have been tagged. I can't blame the man for taking care of his future and his family and his legacy.

Would Schoen be offering Jones another contract, tagging him again or moving on?

If a FA has a choice to go to the Giants after the drama that ended the season and the abysmal showing, or another team that's a contender for the same money, where do you think he goes? Rhetorically speaking.

Quote from: T200 on March 11, 2024, 03:32:44 PMSome people are genuinely good people. I won't root for him against us, obviously. But I want to see him do well. He served his sentence in NY. Go forth and prosper. 

+1

Quote from: MightyGiants on March 11, 2024, 03:21:34 PMInteresting and more damning for Schoen (who should have traded him last season if this was his intention)

He underestimated the FA Market.

He was set to make 12 million this season. Jones would be a good one-year stop gap at 29 years old.
